This report describes the clinical course of a patient who developed
obliterative bronchiolitis after viral infection on three separate
occasions. Long-term follow-up is given. It is suggested that the syndrome
of late pulmonary deterioration after transplantation may be steroid
responsive if treatment is initiated early in the natural history of the
syndrome. In addition, it is suggested that increased emphasis should be
placed on the documentation of viral infection in transplant recipients to
define a possible interaction between infection and rejection.
